when composing a tanka
to just say nothing at all?

we notice ego discontent
with the way things are
it has nothing to do with us of course
Self shines like a bright star

Wind Chaser

Their dreams of uncertain truth are nothing short of dense foolishness. They seek protection under the shadow of the wind

In the End

Unknowing, 
Unfeeling,
Nothing,
Everything,
Empty,
Alone,
Forgotten,
Never was,
Never is,
Never will be,

Nothing Ever Will

touched your name
tapped a keypad
and frog-like-lilly-leaps
found me
fly-like with
accuracy
after so strong a bound

Full Moon

There`s nothing as pure
and nothing as round
nothing as bright or
white as snow nothing
as graceful to me
ivory full moon

Castrate the King

Take away his crown
Take away his jewels 
Kill his knights
Burn down his castle but

Without his Queen he is nothing

Pray Under Dome

All prayed under a dome
As per faith and norms
Not now but at home 
Nothing by this gone
As the one knows all formed!

Premium Member Buoyed as nothing

Surprise

Unpredictability 

An arising newness

Without connection

Appearances seemingly

Buoyed as nothing...

Sedate

the pain
bruises fade
cuts heal
heart ache wanes
but how do you deal with the numb
when there is nothing you can feel

Snow Job

The snow fell in down LA
And everyone wanted to play
But the SAG
Said, "Nothing is free!
So open your wallet and pay!"

Why Read My Poems

Why would anyone read my poems?
They are but rantings
Words that came from where my mind has roamed
Nothing but ravings

White Noise

Why are you so at ease?
Mircle magic has nice plants
Do you see the seeds and the wise
It's all there with nothing at all.

Then Humans Will Be

there is nothing 
either good or bad
thinking makes it so
let all things be done decently
and in order
then humans will be

Feat

To live in a world of vain
With deceiving harsh mystique
Where nothing shall ever be sane
And love is our greatest feat
